‘It's a Matter of Glam’ in Vogue Italia celebrates the season’s fashion excesses. The sophisticated editorial was shot by acclaimed fashion photographer Craig McDean for the magazine’s October 2009 issue.
Fashion editor Edward Enninful decks out Russian supermodel Sasha Pivovarova in attitude-enhancing designs by Givenchy, Lanvin, Prada, Blummarine, and Jil Sander--not to mention a full workout for the bejeweled Fall/Winter 2009 Miu Miu collection. The editorial concentrates on two of fall fashion’s most important and glamorous themes: fur and gems.
